Custom Acrylic signs: Uses, advantages, and where to buy
You may be inclined to ask, “What are acrylic signs?” Typically manufactured from tough-cast polymer, acrylic is a perfect canvas for custom signage for your Orlando, Florida business.
Acrylic signs use a polymer that’s colorless, transparent, and totally customizable. Although it is typically made with UV ink printed right onto the material, it can also be used with vinyl lettering or print films, like opaque and clear window decals.

Uses of acrylic signs for business
Like all of our signage, custom acrylic signs can be modified any way you like for use in almost any setting. However, the properties of acrylic signs do provide some distinct advantages for certain uses.
Since the polymer is colorless and transparent, it’s a great substitute for traditional glass. It’s also cheaper, lighter, and more durable.
Because of its depth, clarity, and sharp aesthetic, frosted acrylic signs are often used by businesses as lobby, directional or architectural signage.

FAQs
How durable are acrylic signs compared to other materials?
Acrylic signs offer exceptional durability. They are far more impact-resistant than glass, protecting against accidental damage, such as cracking or shattering. Compared to wood or metal, acrylic requires very little maintenance. Additionally, acrylic signs don’t discolor, warp, or corrode. To maximize their lifespan, avoid using strong chemical cleaners.
Can acrylic signs be used for outdoor applications?
Yes, acrylic signs can be used outdoors. They resist fading, cracking, and discoloration due to UV exposure. However, you may want to consider UV-resistant coatings for extra protection. Be sure to inform our team if you plan to use your signs outdoors, so we select specialized acrylics designed to handle these conditions.
What customization options are available for acrylic signs?
Acrylic signs offer an enormous range of customization options. You can choose from various material thicknesses and finishes, such as clear, frosted, or tinted. You can also opt for laser-cutting for eye-catching designs or add colored graphics. We offer two printing options: sub-surface for a glossy appearance and standard for a matte look.
Can acrylic signs be illuminated or backlit?
Absolutely, acrylic signs can be illuminated using LEDs to create striking visual impact. Edge-lit or backlit acrylic signs enhance visibility and provide a contemporary look to any space. Additionally, you can choose from a range of lighting configurations, colors, and effects to align with your branding.
Are acrylic signs
weather-resistant?
Acrylic signs offer a great level of weather resistance, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. They can handle wind, rain, and temperature shits well. However, prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and moisture will cause the signs to wear faster. That’s why we choose acrylic sheets with UV-resistant coatings to prevent premature fading.

Loved working with envision Orlando! If you want it done right the first time I highly recommend them. They were nothing but outstanding the entire process. They took my vision and brought it to life. And they gave me input and ideas that I would have never thought of!

Stephen and Todd at Envision are the definition of professional! Envision handled all of our small business needs from signage to custom vinyl lettering for our product and more. They also helped with logo adjustments which helped our overall image that we were looking for. Every question or request was answered with a "yes, no problem!" and they were extremely flexible and helpful with scheduling while still getting the job done quickly and efficiently. We had spoken to several shops prior to choosing envision and found them to be extremely competitive and affordable. We are very pleased with our choice and would absolutely recommend them!
